Hey,

i'm one of the developers of ICS for Galaxy ACE and just trying to get camera working. Unfortunately no success yet, but perhaps you can help me...

Here's what i did:

- i used the msm7x727 camera lib from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1624018

Seem's to me that this is a 'port' of rpmv78's solution. Due to the fact that HTC Hero and Galaxy ACE have same chipsets there should be a chance that it works.

- First try: i used proprietary libs (libcamera.so, liboemcamera.so etc.) from a (STOCK Galaxy ACE) gingerbread ROM. Result is a missing symbol in libs. Here's part of logcat during boot:

----

D/AudioHardwareInterface( 145): setMode(NORMAL)

I/AudioHardware( 145): Set master volume to 1.

I/CameraService( 145): CameraService started (pid=145)

E/HAL ( 145): load: module=/system/lib/hw/camera.msm7x27.so

E/HAL ( 145): Cannot load library: link_image[1965]: 145 could not load needed library 'libcamera.so' for 'camera.msm7x27.so' (reloc_library[1314]: 145 cannot locate '_ZN7android7Overlay5setFdEi'...

E/HAL ( 145): )

E/CameraService( 145): Could not load camera HAL module

----

Than i tried to find out where '_ZN7android7Overlay5setFdEi...' can be found. It is in libui.so (of GB ROM) and i hardly doubt that i can simply replace an ICS libui with an GB libui.

- Second try: i used proprietary camera libs from this ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1612140

Camera module and HAL loads but as soon as i start camera, i'll get:
